Temperatures for Tab.6.8.1I

CS-v4 EAp2:Minimum energy performance
posted by  Francesco Passerini  on 

According to Tab.6.8.1I for test procedure for VRF systems we have to consider AHRI 1230. I’m considering AHRI 1230 version “Approved by ANSI on 2 August 2010”.

I’m modelling a System 8 baseline model according to ASHRAE 90.1-2010.

An exhaust energy recovery system is needed according to table 6.5.6.1.
